One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived for 2 month on a self supporter farm community in the Swiss alps. I helped building a new roof, insulated by sheep's wool. We ate fresh made cheese and our own bread. Slept in yurts and went part of the community.

Hiked and slept on the great wall of China solo.

Heard coyotes howling in Canada.

Saw the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean at the same time, Volcán Barú, Panama.

Sailed through the panama canal

Run a Marathon, Freiburg, Germany.

Dived the 20m (65ft.) cliff in Cenote Ik Kil, Mexico.

Drove my motorbike through Vietnam from South to North

Got almost robbed in the night in Uganda

Got my cab shot in a getaway in Caracas, Venezuela.

Longest period of travelling: 4,5 years. Total time travelled: aprox. 6 years
